[livesupport-dev] Prototype: Easy AJAX
  • This looks like an interesting project that should help get a lot more
    done with Ajax. - doug

    ====================

    Prototype is a JavaScript framework by Sam Stephenson designed to help
    make developing dynamic web apps a whole lot easier. In basic terms, it's
    a JavaScript file which you link into your page that then enables you to
    do cool stuff.

    There's loads of capability built in, a portion of which covers our
    beloved Ajax. The whole thing is freely distributable under an MIT-style
    license, so it's good to go. What a nice man that Mr Stephenson is!
    Friends, let us raise a hearty cup of mulled wine to his good name.
    Cheers! sluurrrrp.

    First step is to download the latest Prototype and put it somewhere safe.
    I suggest underneath the Christmas tree.

  • Thanks for the report. AJAX will be used in htmlUI for 1.1 version, so
    Prototype could be useful.

    The license seems compatible with our needs.
  • http://qooxdoo.oss.schlund.de - is also worth checking out. It is very
    sophisticated AJAX toolkit - it might be overkill too...depends what you
    want from webinterface...
